Introducing SAND Build, the packable, stackable—and just incredible—stuff you’ll love!
Unlike beach or play sand, our SAND Build has special properties that make it soft and stretchy. You'll be fascinated as it oozes, moves, and melts right before your eyes— just like a slow-moving liquid. But when you build or sculpt with it, it stays together better than ever! Build small, build tall… no matter what you create, it won’t crumble or fall over! Great for children and adults, at home or in the office.

You’ll never put it down (trust us—we can’t either!)
Aside from playing with it every chance we get, SAND Build is also great for:

With SAND Build, you can stack it higher than ever before—which means your castle towers will now have a much better view of your SAND kingdom.

The new SAND Build formula sticks to itself better so you can easily shape and sculpt more detailed creations that won’t ooze back into a blob before your eyes.

Leave your sculptures out on display until you’re ready to knock them down and build something better!

Environmental factors may play a role in the consistency of SAND Build. If your SAND Build dries out, slowly add water until desired texture is reached. Continue to do so any time your SAND Build dries out to revive it back to its natural state.

Love it! Great for taller and bigger sculptures without collapse. The older version of sand will collapse with weight and height, but not this. Also, you can actually carve into this. It holds detail very well. It's a little drier than previous sand. I LOVE this stuff!! It works just as well for kids too, very little clean-up

Don't get me wrong, this sand is so much fun to play with. The only thing is I can't touch it because it sticks and gets all over my hands. This is very frustrating especially because it advertises that "it won't make a mess, sticks to itself but not to you". I don't know if I got a bad batch, but it really does create a big mess. I attached a video showing that it does stick!!

Merchant response: We are sorry you are having issues with the sand build.. We viewed your video and that is definitely strange that it is sticking to your hands that much. Did additional moisture get added to the sand, or did you have some sort of hand lotion on? This is not usual, and we want to assist you in making this right. Someone from our customer service team will be reaching out.Thank You,The Brookstone Team

I was super excited to receive the Brookstone Sand Box and Sand Build as a gift. However, when I got it home the sand was dried out and would not clump together or sculpt. I tried making a snow man and it just crumbles.

Merchant response: Hi, Zac. Sorry to hear of your poor experience. Our new SAND Build is designed to be much more moldable and “higher-stacking” than our original SAND. SAND Build has a heavier feel and sticks together better for building. Would you be interested in swapping for the original, lighter version of SAND? Please call Brookstone Customer Care at 800-846-3000 and will make it right.
